This time around, the VA Christmas release is a more chilled out selection of tracks is mostly ambient or chill, with a couple of more beat driven tracks mixed in for good measure.
Mainly unreleased artists have been showcased this time around, with a few regulars (4T Thieves, Rephazer, Faex Optim) appearing and a lot of up and coming talent which may appear on Kahvi in the future. Designed to let you drift into your thoughts, imagining distant unknown places beyond the stars.
Enjoy this years compilation and see you in 2019!
It’s the end of the year and as always we want to present something special to you.
SK’P is back with his detailed and clean sound compositions which already fascinate us, make us dream and forget the time. Better still, he brought a mutual friend with him this time. We knew the whole time that they fit together perfectly, but now we can experience how the completion of this connection finally takes place. We’re obviously talking about the ever more productive GESO, who in between his always fantastic visual appearances thought of something special for us and lets us immerse ourselves in some completely symmetrical 360º videos, interspersed with complicated details that we want to and can explore again and again – with a completely subjective perception and always different.
You know Sk’p and his precise micro cuts, squeaky clean beat works and joyful synth works. Put these two in a mixer and you have another fine release with infinite replay value that invites you to think about our prejudices about paradise, distant futures and multiple ways that we wish they hadn’t taken.
Here you can find the portfolio with all the 360 VR videos:

国内外のレーベルから精力的に作品をリリースしているtaura yorihisaによるノイズ・アンビエント作品。アイザック・アシモフの短編作品に着想を得た本作は、極端にエディットされたギターに、環境音とビットクラッシュノイズが絡まり、今までの作品よりもラフでざらついた音像となっている。アンビエント、シューゲイズ、ドローン、ノイズミュージック……来るべき夜へ、ジャンルを越境していく音の旅路。
美しい日常の風景をモノクロに塗ってしまうかの様な空気の音。
今作は込み上げる内省を見ざるを得ない事を世界に写しこむ様な音で、taura氏の音楽はそういう色彩が元より強かったのだが今作はもっと抑えた嗚咽の様な形で発現してる様に感じます。
リスナー体験としては泣き腫らした後の様な穏やかさを感じられる事でしょう。
尚今作は私はイヤフォンよりもスピーカーで聴かれる事を推奨します。
takasi(gravel’s end)
硬質とも言へる音響の芸からは、星が見え始める「あの夕刻」を思ひ出させる。
空の色が滲み、主観的な時間がじつくりと進んでいくあの時空。だが、其れにも終わりは訪れるのである。また次に訪れる朝まで歩かねばならぬのだ。
さふ、夕刻への感傷だけではない。夜明けへの希望も彼の音楽は観させてくれるのである。
Tia Rungray(音楽家)
文字の通りに音の層に包まれる体験．
いかなる場面においてもyorihisa tauraの音楽は程よい緊張とリラックスを生み出してくれます．
ヘッドフォンでも，スピーカーでも．
音に意識を向けながらでも，何か作業しながらでも．
そんな期待のさらに上をゆくニューリリースです．

New perspective of things can be found by raising ourselves. From a terrace, a peak or imaginary places we seek contemplation as it is our creative nutrient. Unsettling times must be confronted on the sidewalk of music production. As citizens of the world we are being witnesses of agitation related to climate change, to a rearrangement of political forces and to socioeconomic inequity among a variety of intertwined elements that cause reflection. It is a complex scenario that leads forces of similar pulsation and that seems to motivate the efforts behind the sharp response in this fifth compilation of Modismo. This compilation joins multinational talents in a wide range of styles, and as a proof of clean intentions it releases music of such depth and quality available for free. A gesture of caring kindness unites these 21 musical statements in which humanity and the plotted electro-mutant sounds dance as a reflection of upcoming storms. The overflowed pessimism, the industrial protest, the revolutionary dance and the questiong of forms have a natural room in one of the most ambitious works created by this label. For its constant commitment with risk and quality this new compilation of Modismo can be considerated as a compulsory stop at the moment of photograph the state of arts in the contemporary electronic music.

This is a recording of a soundwalk observed from a first person’s point of listening. As all sound recordings do, this soundwalk recording presents what the specific one person hears when she went on a particuar walk. The unusual feature of this work as a soundwalk recording is that it also provides an insight to the thoughts that occur to her while she is on the walk, rendered as a voice letter to an unidentified acquaintance. This reveals personal stories and memories related to the places she visits as part of the soundwalk.
